    Description

    Bring international visitors to Salem, the "Witch City!"

    We're seeking a few volunteers to lead once-monthly Sunday trips up to Salem, MA from Boston, and guide our international visitors to the "Witch City".

    Salem's history is sordid but interested, but also very important when it comes to the education about how fear, misinformation and sexism can cause harm.

    If you're someone who enjoys the "spooky" vibe of Salem, enjoys Salem and Halloween pop culture, and/or the unique history of the Witch Trials, this is an opportunity to express that passion and earn some volunteer hours while you do it!
